“Yuho. Stand in front. I’ll take a picture for you.”
“Ah. Don’t tell me I have to post it on the official account…”
“You have to. It’ll be good for promoting the drama too.”
“You’re right.”
At Juseung’s words, Yuho went right in front of the coffee truck and positioned himself. Various versions of pictorial photos were displayed on the coffee truck stand.
Yuho did his best to endure his embarrassment as he struck idol-like poses.

Yuho wrote the text along with the photo and uploaded it to 7SPOT’s official SNS.
And he was waiting after ordering a green grape ade.
Inhan – [It seems you don’t have my contact information, Mr. Seon Yuho]
It had only been 3 minutes since he posted on the official account, but a message came from Inhan.
Yuho thought “I knew it” and smiled faintly.
He was planning to send a selfie with the ade, but Inhan had contacted him first without any patience.
Yuho – [Wait, you impatient brat]
Inhan – [Who are you calling a brat]
Yuho ignored Inhan’s message and quickly took a selfie and sent it.
Yuho – [Thanks, I’ll enjoy it]
Inhan – [Add a heart too]
Yuho – [Thanks ♡]
Inhan – [Pretty]
Inhan’s comment bombardment was no different from before. But now Yuho had become able to respond flexibly to Inhan’s words.
Yuho – [What? The coffee truck you sent?]
Inhan – [Mr. Seon Yuho who listens well]
No. He was only pretending to respond flexibly. Yuho still often clenched and unclenched his fists, his fingertips tingling at Inhan’s actions without any ulterior motives.
Yuho – [But why are you in love for like ten thousand years]
Inhan – [What’s ten thousand years, I could do it for ten million years]
Yuho – [Suhyung-hyung told you that, I know everything ㅋㅋㅋ]
Inhan – [Oops, caught ㅋㅋㅋ]
At Inhan’s answer, Yuho just laughed it off once. He was desperately trying not to die from being hit by a carelessly thrown stone.
Inhan – [But the feelings in those words are real]
Won’t there come a day when the love piled up as if placed around his heart explodes? Yuho sometimes thought that. Won’t there be a day when no matter how much he tries to block it, his confession pours out on its own and embarrasses Inhan? Yuho was desperately hoping such a moment would never come.
“Wow. What’s this?”
At the sudden sound of Soi’s voice, Yuho took his eyes off his phone.
Yuho greeted Im Soi, a twenty-two-year-old rookie actress who was looking at the coffee truck with curious eyes.
“Oh? Soi. Hi.”
“Hello, Yuho-oppa. Today’s the last day.”
“I know. It’s sad.”
“So is that why this came? Because it’s the last filming?”
“Ah. Yeah. Inhan sent it. Soi, you can have whatever you want from here.”
“Wow. Really? As expected of an idol. Can I take pictures in front of here too?”
“Oh. Of course you can. Want to take them now? Should I take them for you?”
“No. I want to take them with oppa.”
“Okay. Let’s do that. Juseung-hyung. Just one picture please.”
Yuho received Soi’s phone, handed it to Juseung, and stood in front of the coffee truck. Soi quickly stood next to Yuho and took several photos while posing affectionately with Yuho.
“Thank you.”
After greeting Juseung and receiving her phone, Soi, not satisfied, requested a few more selfies from Yuho, and Yuho kindly obliged even that.
It was largely because the young friend who was bravely active alone without a company or manager seemed admirable.
“Um, Soi-ssi. I’m sorry but you can’t post or leak these anywhere.”
At the affectionate-looking pair, Juseung cautiously spoke to Soi.
Soi nodded and agreed with Juseung’s words without showing any embarrassment.
“Yes. Of course. But when we take group photos later, I can post those, right?”
“Yes. That should be fine. Thank you.”
Juseung awkwardly stepped back. Yuho spoke to Soi again to change the atmosphere.
“Soi. What do you want to drink? I’ll order for you.”
“What’s yours, oppa?”
“This is a green grape ade.”
“Then I’ll have that too.”
“Then I’ll have the same thing too.”
At the familiar voice heard from nearby, Yuho and Soi turned around at the same time. Joo Seonchan, the male lead actor of the web drama, was getting out of the back door of a parked vehicle.
“Seonchan-oppa!”
Soi waved her hand, welcoming Seonchan, and Yuho also greeted him with a smile.
“Seonchan. You’re here?”
“Yeah. Yuho. Soi. Hi.”
Seonchan responded to their greetings and approached the coffee truck.
Seonchan was a rookie actor from a mid-sized actor agency and was the same age as Yuho. With large eyes without double eyelids, a prominent T-zone, and thick eyebrows, Seonchan could be classified as a warm handsome man with a masculine impression. He had a completely different kind of handsomeness from Inhan, who had the modifiers of “pretty handsome” and “cold handsome” attached to him, but the fact that both were handsome remained unchanged.
“Yuho. Looks like you got a coffee truck?”
“Yeah. Inhan sent it.”
“As expected, idol class. Thanks to you, Yuho, we won’t have to worry about snacks today either.”
“Seonchan, you’re going to do even better in the future and receive these all the time.”
“As expected, our Yuho. You speak like an angel.”
Seonchan gave the compliment playfully, but Yuho meant it sincerely. Seonchan had already completed his military service and with his tall height of 185cm, looks, acting skills, and even good character, if only the opportunity came at the right time, it seemed only a matter of time before he rose to stardom.
Everyone around knew this fact.
So stars had to be born this way to become one.
Yuho now understood that truth too.
“Seonchan. You’re going to have an iced americano, right?”
“No. I just had coffee. I’ll have the same thing as you.”
“Okay. Got it. Boss! Two more grape ades for us please.”
Yuho placed the order with a beaming smile toward the coffee truck staff. Seonchan watched from right beside him and laughed.
“You’re happy about getting the coffee truck. Yuho.”
“No. That’s not it.”
“I should get you one later too. Seeing how happy Yuho is about this.”
“No. You just enjoy it.”
“Seonchan-oppa. When our drinks come out, let’s all take a picture together.”
“Should we?”
At Soi’s photo request, Seonchan readily gave a positive answer. Then he took out his phone from his pocket and pulled Yuho’s shoulder.
“First, Yuho, come here.”
Seonchan put his arm around Yuho’s shoulders and launched the camera app.
“Pretty pose.”
At Seonchan’s words, Yuho made a fresh expression befitting an idol and created various poses.
“Done. It came out really well.”
“Going to post it on SNS?”
“Yeah. To commemorate the last filming. Is that okay?”
“Ah. Yeah.”
There was nothing wrong with two guys taking and posting pictures. Seonchan had already uploaded several photos taken with Yuho on his SNS. And he was planning to add one more today.
“Yuho, come this way.”
The drinks they’d been waiting for came out and just as the three were about to take a picture together.
Seonchan put Soi in the middle and called Yuho, who was standing on the right, to his side. Yuho obediently moved next to Seonchan.
Thanks to that, a picture was created with Seonchan in the middle and Soi and Yuho on either side. Usually doesn’t the female lead stand in the middle? Soi asked Seonchan in puzzlement.
“Why are we standing like this?”
“Yuho’s an idol. We have to protect him.”
“Ah.”
At Seonchan’s convincing words, Soi nodded and agreed. Yuho alone secretly made a pleased smile.

“Actually, I knew too.”
Tears like chicken droppings fell from Yuho’s eyes. It was so heartbreaking that even Soi, his scene partner, became absorbed and wailed together.
“I’m sorry… Yuho…”
“I knew… but I tried being greedy just once.”
Yuho’s crying, which came out with even his pronunciation breaking down, was not at all the kind of emotion that would appear in a high teen web drama. Should I have him audition for an independent film? Juseung seriously considered it.
“Cut! NG!”
In the end, it became an NG. The PD asked Yuho with a worried face.
“Yuho. Why are you so sad? Is there perhaps some trouble at home or something?”
“No. It’s not like that.”
“Let’s reduce the emotion just a little. The lines aren’t getting through.”
“Yes. I understand.”
Jihee, the coordinator in charge, approached Yuho and handed him tissues, and Juseung brought water and encouraged Yuho.
“You did well. Yuho. Why are you so good at crying scenes? I really thought you got your heart broken.”
“I’m sorry, hyung. I can’t control my emotions well enough.”
“No, no. Your acting teacher always says so, right? Being excessive is better than being insufficient. It’s not even a lot, if you just reduce it a little here it’ll be perfect.”
At Juseung’s words, Yuho nodded.
Since every day was a continuous heartbreak, crying scenes were easy as pie, but the problem was that they got confused with reality and were expressed too excessively.
“Yuho-oppa. Are you okay?”
“Of course. I’m fine. Are you okay too, Soi?”
To Soi, who came over and worried about him, Yuho instead gave kind words. Soi nodded with a smile.
“Yuho-ssi. Should we give you more time?”
“No. I’m fine.”
“Then we’ll go into the shoot!”
The assistant director, feeling anxious about the sun setting, rushed Yuho, and Yuho quickly finished preparing for filming.
Soon filming resumed.
